==Full Conference Descriptions==
01/93 The Annex Conference List
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
NX-Kitchen The Annex's administrative and business conference. Open
to all Annex team leaders, sysops, and moderators, this is
the 'working' conference for the net. Discussions,
problems, caller concerns, and moderation enforcement all
are handled here. Access to this conference is restricted;
only authorized participants are permitted access.
***This is a required conference for all Annex systems***
Host: Elizabeth Lipson
NX-Votes The Annex's announcements and voting conference. The only
traffic in this conference will be announcements to ALL,
and votes (to be initiated by the Records Teamleader). No
discussion is permitted in this conference; all discussion
shall take place in NX-Kitchen. Access to this conference
is restricted; only authorized participants are permitted
access.
***This is a required conference for all Annex systems***
Host: Kathy Lessa
NX-RO_Mail Currently under construction! The Annex will support R/O
mail *only* in this conference. As with all BBS messages,
R/O mail is more private then public mail, but can be read
by sysops and cosysops, and as a result is NOT truly
private. Since messages echo to all connecting systems,
callers should be aware that this facility is not in any
way confidential. Access is restricted during testing;
only sysops & moderators should have access for the time
being. All systems are strongly urged to carry this
conference.
Host: Joseph Rosenman
NX-Callers2NX This is the place for callers to speak to The Annex
administration and moderators. All team-leaders and
moderators will monitor this conference for messages to
ALL or addressed to themselves. Here's the place to ask
questions, make suggestions, and discuss concerns. In the
event that you have a problem with moderation in a
conference, or disagree with a moderator's directions, you
may discuss them here. Other participants are urged to
NOT get involved in such discussions, since a free-for-all
tends to create new problems rather then provide a
solution.
***This is a required conference for all Annex systems***
Host: Elizabeth Lipson
DISCUSSION CONFERENCES
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
NX-ChitChat General talk, primarily personal or individual in nature.
This is the place to exchange personal (but public)
letters, talk about individual concerns or experiences, or
reach out to individuals with similar interests. Although
personal, this *is* a public conference, and other callers
may wish to join in your conversations.
Host: Scott Undercofler
NX-Salon General talk, primarily of a broader sort than ChitChat.
Unlike CrossFire, this is not a debate conference;
instead, it is a place to talk about things of broad
interest to other callers or individuals. This conference
is the ideal place to announce public events of interest
to other callers, such as openings in museums, concerts,
special exhibitions, lectures, or classes. Round-table
discussions of items of general interest are also welcome,
as long as the emphasis is on the exchange of ideas and
providing information.
Host: Joe Rosenman
NX-CrossFire The Annex's opinion conference, this is the place for
spirited debate and the exchange of views. Disagreements
are to be expected, but civil behavior is a requirement.
The Annex's rules against personal attacks and insults are
in full force! In keeping with the spirit of an open
exchange, some callers may chose to use language not
usually used in polite company.
Host: Dennis Sheridan
NX-Politics A conference devoted to discussing politics, politicians,
political parties, and the political process. Like Cross-
Fire, spirited debates are expected and welcome--and like
every other Annex conference, personal attacks are
strictly prohibited. As with CrossFire, language
constraints are relaxed.
Host: Dennis Sheridan
NX-Phil&Relig Philosophy and Religion. Discussions here may range from
real or hypothetical belief systems, different systems of
philosophy, and various systems of theology. This is a
discussion conference, *NOT* a place to try to convert
others to your faith. You may discuss your beliefs, and
ask others about their beliefs, but you may NOT attempt to
convert them to your (or any other) faith. Mutual respect
is the keynote of this conference, and the rule against
personal attack will be strictly enforced!
Host: Sharon Bouchard
NX-BBS_Realm A place to talk about BBSing, different BBS nets, global
telecommunications, echo mail, network philosophy, and the
pros & cons of various systems.
Host: Dave Bonds
TECHNICAL CONFERENCES
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀

(if they have any) in the companion conference, NX-PC_Q&A.

place to ask. Everyone is welcome to join in and ask PC
questions or offer an answer to someone else's question!

is of interest to BBS callers. This conference welcomes
